This isn't the first time that Spencer had announced her love for Reeves. In 2014 the actress shared that Reeves was the first person she'd met in Hollywood after moving from Alabama.
"I had an audition and my car broke down and no one would help me because my car was so dirty until Keanu Reeves," she said to Merideth Vieira at the time.
She continued, "He was on a motorcycle and had his little motorcycle helmet and sunglasses and was like, 'Hey, you need some help?' And I kid you not, I was gonna have him get in and I was gonna push it and he was like, 'No, no, I’m gonna push you.' And I’m thinking, Oh, he’s gonna touch my car!"
